"Roujin Z"

This sounds really cool. *spoilers*

[spoiler]An elderly invalid is volunteered for a bizzare science experiment. He is given the ultimate nurse-the Z-001, a robotic bed linked directly to his brainwaves! But the mechanical caregiver evolves beyond its designer's original plans and transforms into an unstoppable robot![/spoiler]
(Taken from the back of the dvd)

I just got this from the library and thought it sounded good. Has anyone around here seen it? I havent seen any threads about it. Its PG-13 but I heard there was some non-casual nudity. Is this true? Can someone give me some more info on this.

Thanks

I've seen it. It's really not that great, I would have expected better from the director of "Akira", one of the staple anime (which I'm ashamed to say I haven't yet seen). Nudity-wise, yeah, there's a scene of brief, pointless sexuality. But it's nothing that would scar you for life, and pretty forgettable.

If this post seems too utterly absurd or ridiculous to be taken seriously, don't. :)

So aside from that area is there any other content that is questionable?

Ok, I just watched it. I thought it was good. Not great, but good. Here is what I remeber as objectionable
mild language (subbed w/ japanese audio)
Mild crude/sexual humor.
Mild violence.
Nudity: You see an old guys butt briefly, you also see an old guy from the front but it is censored and is important to the story. We see a woman in bed with a man, she is nude and you see the tops of her breasts.
